In this field of research, deposition methods are designed, implemented and manufactured to grow nanostructured electrodes. Relationships are drawn between composition and functionality across the film enabling key physical-functional property inter-relationships, discovering optimum compositions and new materials. Qualification measurements are performed to control

• Thickness, roughness and electrical properties.
• Interface of nanocomposite materials.
• Relationship between lithium storage and defects, layer number, sizes and surface chemistry.
